    Summary

    It hardly seems possible that less than a decade ago their faces were plastered all over the news- the Savior of Unova and one of the world’s most wanted criminals.

    It doesn't appear Touya should have been worried though. The former King of Team Plasma just pillaged a ring toss game for nine Magicarp and tossed them in Nimbasa harbor and no one even blinked.

    —---

    Meeting again for the first time in seven years, the (former) Heroes of Truth and Ideals attempt to be adults and finally get their act together. Mistakes are made.

    Summary

    The final scene of ExU: Calamity, converted into Shakespearean verse. It is, after all, a tragedy.

    Now all is fire, at this age’s end
    And as the city falls into its place
    So falls the Ring of Brass.

    Summary

    His foolishness is what made him deserve it. That’s the reason Astarion latched onto when the familiar sickness rose in his throat as he spun his pretty web. When guilt or shame creeped in at Gale’s wide, adoring eyes and smile, Astarion reminded himself that if he wasn't the one to take advantage, someone worse would. He was doing Gale a favor, even. The weak would be taken advantage of, and Astarion refused to be the weak.

    A progression of scenes following Astarion's manipulation of Gale, and the complicated feelings that accompany it.

    If the future must depend on one person, she thinks, at least it’s someone she would follow unquestioned.

    At least it’s him.

    Summary

    Everyone knows a beast lives at Whitestone Castle, a beast that has stolen souls from the town for many, many years. Should the beast claim one of yours, they say, you take the compensation left on your doorstep and thank the gods it wasn't you instead.

    When her brother runs afoul of the castle's monster, Vex'ahlia does the unthinkable and trades her soul for his. The bargain introduces her to the beast, and to the man still living inside of the monster. Now a prisoner at Whitestone Castle, Vex must find a way to stay alive, and perhaps a way to save those trapped with her - even the beast himself.

    Summary

    The world has changed, and Martin knows the new rules as well as anyone. The monsters come when the sun sets, so you best be home before then. Blast your lights, barricade your doors. Don’t come out until morning. When Martin inadvertently stays out past sunset, he flees his monstrous pursuers and stumbles upon the Magnus Estate, eerie and seemingly abandoned, in the middle of the woods.

    Inside is a man with a monstrous face and glowing eyes, who insists Martin is the key to turning the world back.

    Or, a Beauty and the Beast au—tma style ;)

    Summary

    The truth is, war is the only place Wash has ever found a home in. And now that the one on Chorus is fading, he’s left free floating. Tucker's the only semblance of direction he's got.
    Little does Wash know, he's become Tucker's direction too.

    Or, Tucker and Wash are pining after each other from afar. Being set up on a blind date with one another should be the perfect ending to this story. Unfortunately, things do not go as planned.

    Agent Washington wouldn't exactly regret the words that came into his head the first time he saw Tucker standing there in the snow, but they were certainly going to come back to him: Thank God. One of them's normal.

    Summary

    Aziraphale wouldn’t say he didn’t like being in Heaven.

    Of course he wouldn’t. He was an angel. It was his domain. He wouldn’t say he disliked it at all.

    He wouldn’t say that sometimes, quite often really, getting out of Heaven felt like shrugging off a too-tight, scratchy jumper. That he always felt just a little more at ease, a little more himself, when he was away from them all.

    Aziraphale would never dream of saying any of these things.

    Summary

    “It’s just,” he continued, “I’ve noticed that humans—some humans, anyway—they use that word, angel, as a…well, as a sort of…endearment.”

    “Do they?” said Crowley, who had invented using the word as an endearment in the 13th century AD.

    Summary

    "I just wish things were different," Crowley says... and the universe happily obliges.

    Stuck - perhaps forever - in a reality in which Shadwell is the first Wiccan MP, Pepper's only aspiration in life is to be a dutiful wife to someone, and his beloved Bentley is a rusty VW bus, Crowley is slowly learning that "different" doesn't necessarily mean better...

    But how long can he bear to live* in a world where Aziraphale hates him?

     

    *Not that he has any other option. The Death of this world can't see blood...

    Summary

    Crowley’s dark nails scrape at floorboards as he tries to climb to his feet, smoke choking him. Splinters surely find their way into his fingers, but he doesn’t care, can’t care, as he tries to call out. His voice feels raw, trying to push through a throat and mouth full of embers. He barely pushes himself up to his knees, his feet, while his eyes burn.

    “Aziraphale? Aziraphale!” His gasps burn, his hands screaming as he collapses against a bookshelf. He whispers, “Aziraphale, please…”

    He shuts his eyes, looking, aching, for any sign of his angel, but he can’t. He’s always, always been able to sense him, at least a slight shimmer somewhere in the far reaches of his mind, but there’s nothing.

    He has nothing.

    God, shit, he was right, it was over, and Aziraphale was gone, there wasn’t--

    “Crowley?”

    I don’t know if I can protect all of you, he thinks, not for the first time – and it terrifies him and it enrages him.

    This is what happens, Essek supposes, when you end up caring for people.

    (In which the Mighty Nein come to Rosohna, carrying a dead Assembly member and a death mark from the Empire - and asking for Essek's protection.)

    Summary

    "You can't be serious." Jonathan Sims raises his eyes at last to properly look at Georgie, expecting her to laugh and make some quip about finally getting him to put the damn book down, at least.

    "Well, I am," she shoots back.

    He sets his book aside and turns fully towards her, betrayal clear on his face. "A blind date, really?"

    Jon makes the frankly terrible decision to go on a blind date with one Martin Blackwood. Fate ensues. AU where Jon and Georgie are still friends, Georgie likes finding dates for her friends, Martin doesn't work at the institute, and everyone is just a bit happier while canon spooky stuff goes on in the background. Takes place juuust barely pre-canon in the beginning but catches up quickly. Inspired as usual by the wonderful conversations with my friend RavenXavier/somuchbetterthanthat.
